Chinese confident over Drogba
Shanghai Shenhua hopeful of sealing his deal

Shanghai Shenhua are hopeful they will complete the signing of Chelsea star Didier Drogba before next Monday.

According to local media, Shenhua are currently locked in talks with the Chelsea forward and are optimistic a deal is not too far away.

It would represent a huge double coup for Shenhua, who persuaded Drogba's former Chelsea team-mate Nicolas Anelka to make the move earlier this year.

"Everything is going well so far though there have been a few obstacles. They never turned us down, which is good for us," club board member Zhou Jun told The Shanghai Daily.

With Anelka having recently signed with the Chinese side, Zhou believes the odds of signing the 33 year-old has shortened dramatically.

"It's like making a blockbuster film. When superstars like Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Zhou Xun have confirmed their participation, other actors and actress will be confident of the movie."

Details of the negotiations have yet to be disclosed but Drogba is expected to join Anelka as one of the highest paid players in China if he decides to make the move.

QPR have agreed a fee with Man City for Onuoha. Good player...surprised bigger clubs haven't been interested.

QPR have agreed a fee with Man City for Onuoha. Good player...surprised bigger clubs haven't been interested.

City have some half decent players they need to get off the books, and i think they'll push them towards clubs like QPR rather than see them make a rival better.

Edit: 2.5 mill QPR say for Onuoha, and not the fee being reported in the media today, and on half the wages than what's being reported too.(so talkspite say they've been told)

To be fair Modric is exactly the type of player they need.

Reminds me of the £60m bid for Bale that was torpedoing from Inter that time..
